<a href=http://www.actiontrip.com/>ActionTrip</a> gives us <a href=http://www.actiontrip.com/features/thewitcherenhancededitioninterview.phtml>an interview with Michal Madej</a>, lead designer of <a href=http://www.cdprojekt.com>CD Projekt</a>'s <a href=http://www.thewitcher.com>The Witcher</a> about the upcoming Pimped-Up Edition of the game.
<br>
<blockquote><b>AT: Does the new content feature any main story tie-ins? Also, will players be able to find out more about Geralt's backdrop?</b>
<br>
<br>
MM: We don't want to change the main story, but instead add some more background for Geralt's past. So, the Enhanced Version will include two completely new adventures, featuring over 10 hour of new gameplay. Those additional adventures will take part in Geralt's past and will be fully voice-overed in English, German, Russian and of course Polish.
<br>
<br>
<b>AT: It's good to hear that current owners of The Witcher will be able to get all the extra content via a downloadable update. However, you mentioned that the update also contains patches released so far. Can you tell us roughly how large an update can we expect (500MB, 1GB...)?</b>
<br>
<br>
MM: Yeah, all additional features and adventures will be available for free; for all registered users. I can't tell right now how big it will be, but considering such a huge amount of changers like new models, dialogs, voice-overs, etc. it will be probably compared to full The Witcher game (i.e. a few GB).</blockquote>
<br>
Interestingly, this interview mentions over 10 hours of new gameplay, while the EE fact sheet mentions only 5 (3+2). You can read the rest of the interview <a href=http://www.actiontrip.com/features/thewitcherenhancededitioninterview.phtml>here</a>.
<br>
<br>
Cheers, <b>Ure Paul</b>!

I guess you fireup the download manager aand stage the downloads or they release an official torrent for those downloads.
Not everybody is sporting a 5mbit down broadband pipe.
Still nothing on whether this version will have the topless cards for anyone ouside of Europe, not because i am a perv but i believe if its going to have all this enhanced content then things removed in the U.S. published version should be put back after all it has a T-M rating already.

The whole "TOPLESS CARDS OMG" thing confused me... mostly because I bought the game here in the US, and it somehow had the topless cards ingame.

You sure you didn't get the uncensored version aka the UK import version?
Gogamer sells that version and the U.S. version.

There are still topless cards in the US version. They just have the nipples covered.

I don't think they'll distribute it via torrent. Most probably it will require logging in on the official page, where you and your game are registered and downloading from there. They stated it's for registered users.
I just hope that it will be split into parts, 200-300mb each.

as for the bonus, im sure it will end up in fileplanet, i can get good speeds from there, or in any case im someone will post an unofficial torrent
